Linux-Mandrake Security Update Advisory
________________________________________________________________________
Package name: Zope
Date: February 26th, 2001
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2001:025
Affected versions: 7.1, 7.2, Corporate Server 1.0.1
________________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
A new Hotfix for Zope has been released that fixes a very important
security issue that affects all versions of Zope prior to and including
2.3.1b1. Users can use through-the-web scripting capabilities on a
Zope site to view and assign class attributes to ZClasses, possibly
allowing them to make inappropriate changes to ZClass instances. As
well, perceived security problems with the ObjectManager,
PropertyManager and PropertySheet classes have been fixed as well. It
is highly recommended that all Linux-Mandrake users using Zope upgrade
to these new packages immediately.
________________________________________________________________________
Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of
the downloaded package. You can do this with the command:
rpm --checksig package.rpm
You can get the GPG public key of the Linux-Mandrake Security Team at
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/security/RPM-GPG-KEYS
If you use MandrakeUpdate, the verification of md5 checksum and GPG
signature is performed automatically for you.

To upgrade automatically, use MandrakeUpdate.
If you want to upgrade manually, download the updated package from one
of our FTP server mirrors and upgrade with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm".
You can download the updates directly from one of the mirror sites
listed at:
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ftp.php3.
Updated packages are available in the "updates/[ver]/RPMS/" directory.
For example, if you are looking for an updated RPM package for
Linux-Mandrake 7.2, look for it in "updates/7.2/RPMS/". Updated source
RPMs are available as well, but you generally do not need to download
them.
Please be aware that sometimes it takes the mirrors a few hours to
update.
